Room in Near Allston-Honan Library

This is the first-floor unit of a free-standing duplex in Lower Allston near the Allston-Honan library. Transportation via the 70 & 64 buses provides direct access to the MIT campus. There are two grocery stores within walking distance: Trader... Joe's ~8 mins, and Star Market ~15 mins. We are an MIT staff member and a Harvard post-doc, both in physics. Cost-free laundry is provided in the shared basement. One tenant has lived here for 5 years; the other joined last January.

Per the landlord's policy, active undergraduate students cannot rent the property, and pets are not allowed.
